Disney Cruise Surprise

We surprised the girls with a Disney Cruise!!!!!!  Santa sure does love Ryan and Emma!  We were fortunate to get to go on this adventure with the Tharp family.  The girls had no idea what we were doing.  We just told them we were going on an adventure when we loaded up to drive to Galveston.  They were excited for the adventure but had no idea what was in store!  I took a ton of pictures so I will tell the story of our week on the cruise below.

At the "Disney Boat" as Ry called it.
Emma called it "Toodles boat" when she saw it.
